It it were moving with the speed | of a cannon-ball—that is, 546 yards per second— | it would generate 250,000 times as much heat, | or enough to raise a mass ot water equal to it- A severe cold can be soonest cured by remain- | self nearly 300° of centigrade. It it were moy- ing with the velocity with which a planet would fall Into the sun, it would generate nearly 2,000,000 times as much heat, or enough to bring a mass many thousand times jarger than itself into vivid inean- descence, far exceeding that which could be produced by any form of combustion. A mass of matter, equal to about the hundredth part of the earth, falling every year trom the earth's tance. would in this way suffice to maintain sun’s heat radiation permanently. The ef strength of this conception, !t will be observed, is the use which it makes of the fact of the continuous Increase of heat, with increase of velocity, in the square of the augmentation Its obvious weakness, on the other hand, is the extreme improbability that any quantity of matter can’ be thus thrown meteorically into the sun. If me- teorle material was so abundant in space the earth’s share, instead of turnishing it with an occasional pyrotechnical display, ought to batter its mass in a year into the temperature something like that of boiling water. Such an amount of mass added to the sun would serve to accelerate the move- ment of the planets and to shorten their periods of revolution im consequence of the Solar attraction. If, again. there were any meteoric gatherings near the sun, capable of yielding such copions contributigns, these would of necessity produce yery manifest dis- turbances in the movement of the planet Mer- cury. But nothing of this kind has been de- tected. In consequence of these considera- tions the conclusion, almost unanimously adopted by astronomers, 1s to the effect that, although some accession to the sun’s heat may possibly be derived from the impact of meteors failing into its substance, it is very improbable thatthe gain from this cause can reach anything like the amount which is ascribed to it in Mayer's theory. The verdict of mere common | sense {s certainly quite uncompromisingly and unconditionally in the same direction, especially when jt is taken into account that the anvil upon which the meteoric blows have to be de- ered is more of the nature of an_air-cushion fastened upon a nucleus of “putty,” than of the fron mass upon which the blacksmith operates. pl dslalubanda ed Brooklyn ana New York Contrasted.

The little | hair glands, which bear the same relation to the hair that the seed wheat does to the plant above ground, become weak from the moistureand heat and finally become too weak to sustain the hair. It falls out and baldness exists. A man with a good head of halr needs very little pro- tection where the hair grows. “‘And yet,” he says, “‘we.men wear immensely thick fur caps, and what amounts to sheet iron hats, and do not dare step out in a chilly atmosphere a moment lest we take cold.

New York bridge—nor, indeed, half so much, for the many millions which have built it as far as it is built, and the millions still building it, and the more millions which are to build it, virtually come from New York. Brooklyn 1s to New York simply a dormitory where- in money making brains and bodies repair to sleep and recuperate themselves for the next day’s battle on Wail street and else- where. The moment you land in Brooklyn you are sensible of a change as compared with New York. You feel a hundred miles away. Everything seems subdued, quiet, toned down. But be not deceived. This’ city holds a great deal of the mental strength of New York. It is not so pretentious, but it is more solid. Itis not so showy, but more sensible. It has more of the real American element than New York— or at least that element here makes itself more distinctly felt. It has recently turned out a foreign born mayor and elected a young “rep- resentative American,” who really seems trying to act conscientiously, independently “and honestly. It contains a splendid park, where people may walk and roll on the grass if they like, and, unlike Central Park, is kept for use— not show. Central Park is a rich man’s park—a system of walk from which you look oyer hundreds of acres with “Keep off the grass” ever in sight, and a policeman to club you if ever you £0 thereon—a place visited on Sunday by 40,000 or 50,000 weary people, for there are seats for not more than 2,000. It contains a most di-tressed and ramshackle Menagerie of wild and tame animals, whose misery is so apparent, that Bergh, the horse humanitarian, advised the other day that they either be turned loose or killed for pure human- ity’s sake. It containsan old stone, brought from Exypt, and presented.to the city by the richest man in America, being typical in coldness and heaviness of hisown heart and head. This par! \so holds some monuments of local poets, who, ahun- dred years heuce,will be occasionally sought for and resurrected by antiquarians out of the ency- clopedias of 1982. ‘It isreally a beautiful park—to die ia—and much sought after by suicides. Its police are very strict in preserving ail the pro- prieties, and men have been clubbed off the grounds for putting their arms around the walsts of their own wives, although this is such aphenomenal and uncommon occurrence that it can hardly be expected of a simple policeman, actuated by a rigid sense of duty and morality (as all New York politically appointed police- men are.) to view it otherwise than in the light of a social and public impropriety. Freaks of a Western Cyclone. From the Chicago Tribune, Writing of the cylone which devastated Grin- nell, Iowa, on the 17th of June, a correspondent says: “The course of the cyclone described a semi-circle around the outer edge of the town, commencing near the tracks of the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacificrailroad on the west, and passing around the northern portion of the town, till it again veered to the south, and crossed the tracks of the same road east of the town. “I will mention a few miraculous escapes and some ludicrous situations which I believe have not appeared in print: Mr. G.
